Velvia. Film speed is 100. I haven't yet tried Provia or Sensia so I don't
know how they compare.>>

I too have had some excellent results with Elite II ... SOMETIMES! Other
times, film with the same expiration date has produced slides so grainy as to
be very frustrating to view. This has happened over the course of three
separate purchases, to the extent that I've given up on Kodak. Never had this
happen with Fuji Provia, which is my film of choice ... though I admit, when
the Kodak worked, its colors were richer.
